The pilot will run for about a month and will include general information sessions attended by both managers and general staff and a specialised capacity building training session for the various Disability Management Champions and senior managers, including dealer principals. 

 

Colyn Nel, Franchise Executive at Bidvest McCarthy Nissan, says the team is excited to be involved. “We are strong campaigners for equal opportunities and are proud to be one of the pilot sites for this important project,” he notes. 

 

According to Thandeka Phiri, MISA’s National Training Manager, the team is getting ready for the wider rollout of the project. “We will keep our members informed about the developments regarding this project,” she says.
